A punching machine and a method for manufacturing a punched product according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

(Structure and function)
1 is a front view showing a structure of a punching machine according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a top view showing a structure of the punching machine shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a first view provided in the punching machine shown in FIG. FIG. 4 is a left side view showing the structure of the traveling mechanism, and FIG. 4 is a right side view showing the structure of the second traveling mechanism provided in the punching machine shown in FIG.

The punching machine 1 is a self-propelled automatic punching machine that punches the punching object O while traveling on or near the punching object O to which the punching plate T is attached. For example, a perforation target O formed by providing a structure O2 on a plate-shaped component O1 is a perforation target by the perforation machine 1. In the illustrated example, a perforation target O is a perforation target O having a structure in which a plurality of elongated structures O2 having a web O3 and a flange O4 are provided on a plate-shaped component O1. More specifically, the part of the web O3 of the object to be perforated O is the object to be perforated. Therefore, the perforated plate T is attached to the web O3 of the perforated object O.

An example of an object to be drilled O having a structure in which a plurality of elongated structures O2 are mounted on a plate-shaped component O1 is a central wing of an aircraft. The central wing is a wing provided between the left and right main wings of the aircraft. Therefore, the central wing is located at the bottom of the fuselage of the aircraft. Therefore, the central wing has a structure in which a seat rail for fixing a seat is attached to a curved panel.

Therefore, when the punching object O is the central wing of an aircraft with seat rails attached, the punching object O is a plurality of flat sheet rails whose top surface is flat on the panel which is a non-planar plate-like component O1. This is a structure in which a shaped steel-like structure O2 is provided. Another example of the object to be drilled O is an aircraft structure such as a main wing in which a structure having a web such as stringers, ribs, and spars and a flange is mounted on a panel.

A shaped steel, that is, a steel material having a constant cross-sectional shape such as an I-type or H-shape that is long in the axial direction is also an example of the long structure O2, but a shaped steel having a non-uniform cross-sectional shape in the axial direction. Shaped steel material can also be an example of the long structure O2. Further, not only the steel material but also a shaped steel structure composed of a composite material can be an example of the long structure O2.

The punching machine 1 can be configured by a punching mechanism 2, a traveling device 3, a position sensor 4, an integrated circuit (IC: Integrated Circuit) tag reader 5, and a control device 6. Among the constituent elements of the punching machine 1, the constituent elements for performing information processing and control can be configured by a circuit such as a computer.

The punching mechanism 2 is a device that holds a tool such as a drill and punches an object O to be punched. In the example shown, two punching mechanisms 2 are provided in the punching machine 1. That is, the punching machine 1 includes a first punching mechanism 2A for punching a hole having a first diameter and a second punching mechanism 2B for punching a hole having a second diameter different from the first diameter. Is equipped with. A first drilling tool for drilling a hole having a first diameter is attached to the first drilling mechanism 2A. On the other hand, a second drilling tool for drilling a hole having a second diameter is attached to the second drilling mechanism 2B. Therefore, it is possible to perform drilling in two different sizes, that is, the first diameter and the second diameter. Each drilling mechanism 2 is a drill driving device capable of rotating and feeding a tool such as a drill.

Each punching mechanism 2 may be provided with a cutting oil supply mechanism or a dust collecting mechanism for collecting cutting chips, if necessary. Examples of the method of supplying the cutting oil include a method of supplying the cutting oil via the inside of a tool such as a drill and a method of disposing a cutting oil supply nozzle outside the tool.

A general-purpose drill driving device capable of operating rotation, feed, return and cutting oil supply by one system of air signal is commercially available. Therefore, if a commercially available air-type drill driving device is used as the punching mechanism 2, the manufacturing cost of the punching machine 1 can be reduced. However, in order to operate each part of the punching mechanism 2, not only an air type mechanism but also a hydraulic type mechanism or a mechanism driven by electric control may be used.

The head of each punching mechanism 2 is preferably provided with a collet 2C as shown. The collet 2C is a device that clamps the head of the punching mechanism 2 on the punching plate T in a state of being inserted into the punching plate T. Specifically, when the tip of the head of the punching mechanism 2 is pushed into the collet 2C inserted into the punching plate T, the collet 2C is pushed outward and the head of the punching mechanism 2 is moved to the punching plate T via the collet 2C. Can be fixed. The diameter of the first drilling tool attached to the first drilling mechanism 2A is different from the diameter of the second drilling tool attached to the second drilling mechanism 2B. Therefore, in the illustrated example, the size of the collet 2C attached to the first punching mechanism 2A and the size of the collet 2C attached to the second punching mechanism 2B are also different.

Each punching mechanism 2 is directly or indirectly connected to the traveling device 3 by the attachment/detachment mechanism 7. In the illustrated example, each punching mechanism 2 is indirectly connected to the traveling device 3 by the attaching/detaching mechanism 7 via the feeding mechanism 8.

The feed mechanism 8 is a device that moves the punching mechanism 2 itself in the tool axis direction. Each feed mechanism 8 is configured by, for example, a rack and pinion 8A, a feed motor 8B for rotating the pinion side of the rack and pinion 8A, and a feed guide 8C for guiding the movement of the punching mechanism 2. You can The rack is a straight rod with a gear cut, and the pinion is a circular gear with a small diameter that meshes with the rack. That is, by fixing the perforation mechanism 2 slidably set along the feed guide 8C to the rack side of the rack and pinion 8A, and rotating the pinion of the rack and pinion 8A by the feed motor 8B, It can be fed in the axial direction of the tool of the punching mechanism 2.

When the tool feeding operation is performed only by the tool feeding function provided in each punching mechanism 2, the feeding mechanism 8 may be omitted. However, if the feed mechanism 8 of the punching mechanism 2 is provided in the punching machine 1, even if the structure O2 has irregularities in the tool axis direction, interference between the head of the punching mechanism 2 and the structure O2 is avoided. can do.

The attachment/detachment mechanism 7 can be configured by a positioning pin 7A, a positioning hole 7B, a hook 7C, and a fixing knob 7D. The positioning pin 7A and the hook 7C are provided on the punching mechanism 2 side. On the other hand, the positioning hole 7B and the fixing knob 7D are provided on the attachment target side of the punching mechanism 2. In the illustrated example, since the punching mechanism 2 is attached to the feed mechanism 8, the feed mechanism 8 is provided with a positioning hole 7B and a fixing knob 7D.

Two sets of the positioning pin 7A and the positioning hole 7B are provided so that the positioning pin 7A can be inserted into the positioning hole 7B. Therefore, the punching mechanism 2 can be positioned by inserting the two positioning pins 7A into the positioning holes 7B.

The fixing knob 7D is configured so that it can be pulled up like a lever by a rotating shaft. When the fixing knob 7D is pulled up while the punching mechanism 2 is positioned by the two sets of the positioning pin 7A and the positioning hole 7B, the fixing knob 7D comes to engage with the hook 7C attached to the punching mechanism 2. There is. Therefore, the punching mechanism 2 can be fixed to the feeding mechanism 8 by the engagement of the fixing knob 7D and the hook 7C. That is, the punching mechanism 2 can be positioned by the positioning pin 7A, and the punching mechanism 2 can be easily attached to and detached from the feed mechanism 8 by operating the fixing knob 7D.

The feed mechanism 8 to which the punching mechanism 2 is attached/detached is connected to the traveling device 3. The traveling device 3 is a device that positions the perforation mechanism 2 in the traveling direction by traveling in a direction different from the perforation direction. Therefore, a guide such as a rail may be installed on or near the punching object O in order to run the traveling device 3. However, the traveling device 3 can be configured to travel using a desired structure of the drilling object O as a guide. This eliminates the need for a dedicated rail for moving the traveling device 3, so that the configuration of the traveling device 3 can be simplified. Therefore, in the following, a case where the traveling device 3 is configured to travel with the drilling object O itself as a guide will be described as an example.

As a more specific example, a device that positions the perforation mechanism 2 in the traveling direction by traveling the traveling device 3 in the longitudinal direction of the elongated structure O2 using the elongated structure O2 of the object to be perforated as a guide. Can be In this case, the traveling device 3 can be configured by using the plurality of traveling mechanisms 9 and the adjusting mechanism 10. Each traveling mechanism 9 is a device that travels using the long structure O2 of the object to be punched O as a guide. On the other hand, the adjustment mechanism 10 is a device that adjusts the intervals between the plurality of traveling mechanisms 9.

In the illustrated example, two traveling mechanisms 9 are provided as the traveling device 3 in accordance with the positions of the two elongated structures O2. However, three or more traveling mechanisms 9 may be provided according to the positions of the three or more long structures O2. Alternatively, when there are three or more long structures O2, the two traveling mechanisms 9 may be provided according to the positions of any two long structures O2. That is, the traveling device 3 can be configured by a plurality of traveling mechanisms 9 that travel on at least two elongated structures O2. Hereinafter, a case where the traveling device 3 has two traveling mechanisms 9 as illustrated will be described as an example.

If the traveling device 3 is provided with the adjusting mechanism 10 that adjusts the distance between the two traveling mechanisms 9, even if the perforated object O has three or more long structures O2 arranged at different intervals, it is possible to select. It becomes possible to travel by using the two elongated structural objects O2 as guides. The adjusting mechanism 10 can be configured, for example, by providing the frame 10C with a cylindrical slider 10B that slides along two rods 10A as illustrated. That is, the width of the adjustment mechanism 10 can be expanded or contracted by sliding the frame 10C along the two rods 10A in the longitudinal direction of the rods 10A. The frame 10C can be fixed to the rod 10A side by the stopper 10D. Therefore, if the adjusting mechanism 10 is provided between the two traveling mechanisms 9, the distance between the two traveling mechanisms 9 can be adjusted by expanding and contracting the adjusting mechanism 10.

Each traveling mechanism 9 can be configured by rollers, chains, or the like. In the illustrated example, each traveling mechanism 9 has a chain 20 and a support roller 21 that travel on a flange O4 that is the upper surface of the elongated structure O2, and a lower surface guide roller 22 that guides the lower surface of the flange O4. Further, the traveling mechanism 9 on the side of the perforated plate T is provided with an outer side roller 23 that travels in contact with the web O3 in the horizontal direction and an inner side roller 24 that travels in contact with the perforated plate T from the horizontal direction. ..

The chain 20 running on the flange O4 is driven by two sprockets (gears that mesh with the chain 20) 25. Then, one sprocket 25 is fixed to one end of the drive shaft 26. Since the chain 20 traveling on the flange O4 is provided in the two traveling mechanisms 9, one of the two sprockets 25 provided in each traveling mechanism 9 is fixed to both ends of the drive shaft 26. As a result, the sprockets 25 of the two traveling mechanisms 9 are connected by the drive shaft 26.

A drive shaft 26 of the sprocket 25 is connected to a traveling motor 28 by a belt 27. Therefore, when the traveling motor 28 is driven, the rotational power is transmitted to the drive shaft 26 by the belt 27. As a result, the two sprockets 25, which are both wheels, rotate together with the drive shaft 26, and the two chains 20 can be driven in the traveling direction along the longitudinal direction of the long structure O2. That is, by driving the chain 20, the traveling device 3 can travel in the traveling direction along the longitudinal direction of the long structure O2.

Further, the traveling roller 3 is guided by the support roller 21, the lower surface guide roller 22, the outer side roller 23, and the inner side roller 24 so that the traveling device 3 can surely travel along the long structure O2. That is, even for a long structure O2 having a complicated structure such as a seat rail that is not originally a rail for traveling, the long structure O2 is moved by the traveling mechanism 9 having a structure straddling the long structure O2. It can be used as a rail.

When the elongated structure O2 is a seat rail, a plurality of holes are provided in the flange O4 along the longitudinal direction. That is, when the object to be punched O is a panel to which a seat rail is attached, the object to be punched O has at least one long structure O2 having a plurality of holes along the traveling direction of the traveling device 3 in a plate shape. It has a structure provided on the part O1.

Therefore, the traveling mechanism 9 of the traveling device 3 can be provided with projections 29 such as pins that fit into a plurality of holes provided in the long structure O2 such as a seat rail. As a result, the traveling mechanism 9 can be prevented from falling off. In the illustrated example, the chain 20 of the one traveling mechanism 9 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 29 that are fitted into a plurality of holes provided on the upper surface of the elongated structure O2. The support roller 21 may be provided with the protrusion 29.

However, in the case of the chain 20, unlike the roller, a portion that linearly contacts the upper surface of the long structure O2 occurs. Therefore, the chain 20 can be provided with a plurality of protrusions 29 that are simultaneously fitted into at least two holes of the plurality of holes provided on the upper surface of the elongated structure O2. Accordingly, the traveling direction of the chain 20 can be the arrangement direction of the plurality of holes provided on the upper surface of the long structure O2. In addition, the tool axis direction can always be the same as the arrangement direction of the plurality of holes of the long structure O2.

In the case where the traveling mechanism 9 is provided with traveling means for linearly or in the longitudinal direction on the upper surface of the elongated structure O2 such as a metal crawler or a belt instead of the chain 20, the traveling mechanism 9 similarly travels. The mechanism 9 can be provided with a plurality of protrusions 29 that are simultaneously fitted into at least two holes of the plurality of holes provided on the upper surface of the elongated structure O2.

If the long structure O2 is a seat rail, normally, through holes are provided linearly and at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, if the distance between the protrusions 29 of the traveling mechanism 9 is determined according to the pitch of the through holes, the protrusions 29 can be fitted into at least two holes of the seat rail at the same time. Even when a plurality of holes are provided on the upper surface of the long structure O2 at unequal intervals, if the protrusions 29 are provided on the traveling mechanism 9 at intervals that are the least common multiple of the intervals of the holes, at least The protrusion 29 can be fitted into the two holes at the same time.

This makes it possible to orient the traveling direction of the traveling mechanism 9 and the tool axis direction to appropriate directions by using the long structure O2 such as a seat rail that is not originally a traveling rail. That is, the traveling mechanism 9 can be caused to travel with the plurality of holes provided on the upper surface of the elongated structure O2 as a reference, and the tool axial direction can be fixed. In addition, it is possible to reliably prevent the traveling mechanism 9 from slipping or falling off.

However, it is desirable to provide the protrusion 29 only on one of the traveling mechanisms 9. This is because the arrangement directions of the holes provided in the long structure O2 on which the two traveling mechanisms 9 travel are not always parallel. That is, as shown in the figure, if a plurality of protrusions 29 are provided only on one chain 20, the chain 20 provided with the protrusions 29 is arranged in the direction in which the holes provided in the long structure O2 on which the other chain 20 travels are arranged. Even if the direction is different from the arrangement direction of the holes provided in the long structure O2 on which the traveling structure runs, the long structure O2 on which the chain 20 provided with the protrusion 29 travels in the traveling direction of the traveling mechanism 9 and the tool axis direction. It is possible to orient the holes in the appropriate direction with reference to the arrangement direction of the holes. Specifically, if the traveling direction of the traveling mechanism 9 and the tool axial direction are vertical, the tool can always be oriented vertically to the arrangement direction of the holes provided in the long structure O2.

This is the same when the traveling device 3 has three or more traveling mechanisms 9. That is, in the case where the traveling device 3 includes a plurality of traveling mechanisms 9 that travel at positions apart from each other in the traveling direction, only one traveling mechanism 9 of the plurality of traveling mechanisms 9 has a long structure. It is appropriate to provide a plurality of protrusions 29 that fit into at least two of the plurality of O2 holes at the same time. Then, the traveling device 3 can be caused to travel using one long structure O2 arbitrarily selected from the plurality of long structures O2 as a guide.

Further, the outer side roller 23 that travels in contact with the web O3 in the horizontal direction and the inner side roller 24 that travels in contact with the perforated plate T from the horizontal direction may be provided only in the traveling mechanism 9 on the side of the perforated plate T. it can. Thereby, even when the webs O3 of the plurality of long structures O2 are not parallel to each other, one long structure O2 arbitrarily selected from the plurality of long structures O2 and the long structure O2. The outer side roller 23 and the inner side roller 24 can be run only for the perforated plate T attached to the.

The punching machine 1 can be further provided with a position sensor 4 and an IC tag reader 5 in order to automatically control the traveling of the traveling device 3 and the punching by the punching mechanism 2. The position sensor 4 is a sensor that detects the position of the perforated plate T attached to the perforated object O. On the other hand, the IC tag reader 5 is an information reading device that reads information recorded in the IC tag 30 directly or indirectly attached to the object to be punched O. In the illustrated example, the IC tag 30 is attached to the perforated plate T.

FIG. 5 is a diagram of the perforated plate T shown in FIG. 1 as viewed from the right side.

As shown in FIG. 5, a plate-shaped perforated plate T can be attached to the perforated side of the web O3 with a tightening device such as a bolt along the longitudinal direction of the long structure O2. In the illustrated example, two perforated plates T are provided side by side. Each perforated plate T is provided with a through hole for guide according to the perforation position of the long structure O2, and the IC tag 30 can be attached.

The position sensor 4 can be configured by a laser displacement sensor that irradiates a laser toward the upper surface of the perforated plate T. Then, the position sensor 4 can detect the position of the end of the perforated plate T. That is, the existence range of the perforated plate T can be detected by a binary detection signal indicating whether or not the laser reflected on the upper surface of the perforated plate T is detected by the position sensor 4.

In the illustrated example, the punching machine 1 is provided with a position sensor 4 for detecting one end of the combined perforated plate T and a position sensor 4 for detecting the other end of the perforated plate T. ing. In this way, by detecting the punching plate T provided as a punching jig instead of the punching object O, the simple and common position sensor 4 can be used as the punching object O regardless of the structure of the punching object O. The relative positional relationship with the punching machine 1 can be detected.

The identification information (ID information) of the punching plate T and the selection information of the punching mechanism 2 are recorded on the IC tag 30 attached to the punching plate T. Since there are two punching mechanisms 2, in the example shown in FIG. 5, each punching plate T has two IC tags 30 corresponding to the two punching mechanisms 2, that is, a first IC tag 30A and a second IC tag 30B. Is pasted. By the IC tag 30 of the perforated plate T, it is possible to perform automatic control including automatic running and automatic perforation of the perforator 1 using an RFID (radio frequency identifier) technology. RFID is a technique for wirelessly acquiring ID information from an RF tag such as an IC tag that records ID information.

The IC tag reader 5 of the punching machine 1 is provided at a position where the IC tag information can be read from the IC tag 30 attached to the punching plate T. The IC tag information including the ID information of the perforated plate T and the selection information of the perforated mechanism 2 read by the IC tag reader 5 is wirelessly transferred to the control device 6. Similarly, the position information of the end portion of the perforated plate T detected by each position sensor 4 is also wirelessly transferred to the control device 6.

The control device 6 is a device that is configured by electronic circuits such as a computer and controls each component of the punching machine 1. That is, the control device 6 is a device for controlling the driving of the punching mechanism 2, the driving of the feeding mechanism 8 and the traveling of the traveling device 3. From the viewpoint of reducing the weight of the loading target by the traveling device 3, the control of the punching mechanism 2, the feeding mechanism 8 and the traveling device 3 by the control device 6 is performed by wireless remote control without mounting the entire control device 6 on the traveling device 3. Can be

In that case, the control device 6 can be configured by a main body portion 6A which is not mounted on the traveling device 3 and a control signal receiving device 6B which is mounted on the traveling device 3 and wirelessly communicates with the main body portion 6A. In the illustrated example, the control signal receiving device 6B is provided above the adjusting mechanism 10 that adjusts the distance between the traveling mechanisms 9.

FIG. 6 is a functional block diagram of the control device 6 shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 6, the main body 6A can be provided with a storage device 6C, a control signal generation unit 6D, and a wireless device 6E.

The main body portion 6A of the control device 6 includes the traveling device 3, the feed mechanism 8 and the perforation mechanism based on the position of the perforated plate T detected by the position sensor 4 attached to the traveling device 3 and the information read by the IC tag reader 5. 2 has a function of remotely controlling. Specifically, the control signal generation unit 6D of the main body unit 6A uses the punching mechanism 2, the feeding mechanism 8, and the traveling device based on the position of the punching plate T detected by the position sensor 4 and the information read by the IC tag reader 5. 3 has a function of generating the control signal of No. 3 and transmitting the generated control signal to the control signal receiving device 6B wirelessly through the wireless device 6E.

On the other hand, the control signal receiving device 6B of the control device 6 receives the control signals of the punching mechanism 2, the feeding mechanism 8 and the traveling device 3 wirelessly transmitted from the main body portion 6A, and outputs them to the target device. Have. That is, the punching mechanism 2, the feeding mechanism 8 and the traveling device 3 are configured to be driven according to the control signal output from the control signal receiving device 6B. The control signal output from the control signal receiving device 6B to the device driven by compressed air may be an air signal.

The position sensor 4 detects the positions of both ends of the perforated plate T. Therefore, the traveling direction of the traveling device 3 can be controlled based on the position of the end of the perforated plate T detected by the position sensor 4. Specifically, when the end of the perforated plate T is detected, a control signal for instructing to stop the traveling device 3 or reverse the traveling direction is wirelessly transmitted from the main body portion 6A to the control signal receiving device 6B. You can As a result, when the traveling device 3 reaches the end of the perforated plate T, the traveling device 3 can be quickly stopped or run backward. Therefore, the traveling device 3 can be prevented from falling off not only by the mechanical structure but also by remote control.

On the other hand, the ID information of the punching plate T and the selection information of the punching mechanism 2 read by the IC tag reader 5 are used for specifying the punching position. Therefore, the storage device 6C of the main body portion 6A stores in advance information indicating the relationship between the ID information of a plurality of perforated plates T and the perforation positions.

When drilling a plurality of holes having a specific diameter arranged on a straight line, the drilling position is one-dimensional position information, that is, the pitch between adjacent holes or the distance from the reference position to each hole. Can be expressed as Therefore, if a table showing the relationship between the ID information of the perforated plate T and the one-dimensional perforated position is stored in the main body 6A, the perforated position can be specified based on the ID information of the perforated plate T. ..

In the example shown in FIG. 5, a plurality of holes having two kinds of diameters, which are arranged on different straight lines from each other, are targets of perforation of the perforation object O. Therefore, a plurality of holes having two kinds of diameters are arranged on the two perforated plates T on different straight lines.

Therefore, a hole having one diameter can be an object to be punched by the one punching mechanism 2, and a hole having the other diameter can be an object to be punched by the other punching mechanism 2. Then, as the traveling device 3 reciprocates on the long structure O2, holes having two sizes can be formed in the long structure O2. That is, in the forward path of the traveling device 3, the hole having one diameter can be processed by the one punching mechanism 2, and in the return path of the traveling device 3, the hole having the other diameter can be processed by the other punching mechanism 2. .. When the position of the hole of one diameter in the height direction and the position of the hole of the other diameter in the height direction are different from each other, the adjusting mechanism for adjusting the position in the height direction of the punching mechanism 2. May be provided.

In the illustrated example, the first punching mechanism 2A is configured to punch a hole having the first diameter in the forward path of the traveling device 3 that reciprocates, while the second punching mechanism 2B is used to travel the traveling device 3 Will be configured to drill a second diameter hole in the return path.

In this case, the position of the hole having one diameter of the perforated plate T is the position of the perforating mechanism 2 and the position of the hole having the other diameter of the perforated plate T is the position of the other perforating mechanism 2. Become. Therefore, as illustrated in FIG. 5, in the case where the position of the perforation mechanism 2 is the initial position before the start of perforation, the IC tag 30 in which the selection information of the one perforation mechanism 2 and the ID information of the perforation plate T are recorded. In addition, the IC tag reader 5 can be attached to the position of the end portion of the perforated plate T where the information recorded in the IC tag 30 can be read. Similarly, with respect to the IC tag 30 in which the selection information of the other punching mechanism 2 and the ID information of the punching plate T are recorded, the IC tag is read by the IC tag reader 5 when the position of the punching mechanism 2 is the initial position before the start of punching. It can be attached to the position of the end of the perforated plate T where the information recorded in 30 can be read.

More specifically, the first IC tag 30A in which the selection information of the first punching mechanism 2A and the ID information of the punching plate T are recorded on both ends of each punching plate T, and the selection information of the second punching mechanism 2B. Also, the second IC tag 30B in which the ID information of the perforated plate T is recorded can be attached. Since the first punching mechanism 2A punches a hole having the first diameter on the outward path of the traveling device 3, the first IC tag 30A is attached to the end of each perforated plate T on the starting side of the traveling device 3 on the outward path. Be done. On the other hand, since the second punching mechanism 2B punches a hole having the second diameter in the return path of the traveling device 3, the second IC tag 30B is provided at the end of each punching plate T on the starting side of the return path of the traveling device 3. Is installed.

Thereby, in the body portion 6A, at the start of punching, the punching position can be specified based on the selection information of the punching mechanism 2 and the ID information of the punching plate T. That is, when the position of one of the punching mechanisms 2 is the initial position before the start of punching, the position to be punched can be specified.

Specifically, as information for identifying the drilling position of the hole having the first diameter by the first drilling mechanism 2A, the selection information of the first drilling mechanism 2A and the ID information of the drilling plate T are used as the traveling device 3 It can be read by the IC tag reader 5 from the first IC tag 30A attached to the end of each perforated plate T on the start side of the outward path. Similarly, as information for identifying the drilling position of the hole having the second diameter by the second drilling mechanism 2B, the selection information of the second drilling mechanism 2B and the ID information of the drilling plate T are used as the return path of the traveling device 3. It can be read by the IC tag reader 5 from the second IC tag 30B attached to the end of each perforated plate T on the starting side of.

The selection information of the punching mechanism 2 and the ID information of the punching plate T read by the IC tag reader 5 are wirelessly transferred to the main body 6A of the control device 6. Then, the control signal generation unit 6D can acquire the selection information of the punching mechanism 2 and the ID information of the punching plate T read from the IC tag 30 by the IC tag reader 5 through the wireless device 6E. Then, based on the acquired selection information of the punching mechanism 2 and the ID information of the punching plate, and the information indicating the relationship between the ID information of the plurality of punching plates T and the punching positions stored in the storage device 6C, the punching mechanism 2 It is possible to specify the drilling position by.

When the punching position is specified, the traveling device 3 can be controlled by the control device 6 so that the punching mechanism 2 is positioned at the specified punching position. That is, the control device 6 controls the traveling device 3 so that the first drilling mechanism 2A is positioned at the drilling position of the hole having the first diameter, while the second drilling mechanism 2B causes the hole drilling of the second diameter to be performed. It is possible to control the traveling device 3 so that the traveling device 3 is positioned at the punching position.

Therefore, a control signal for instructing the moving distance of the traveling device 3 and a control signal for instructing the operations of the punching mechanism 2 and the feed mechanism 8 to be driven are generated in the control signal generating unit 6D of the control device 6. You can Then, the generated control signal can be output from the main body portion 6A to the traveling device 3, the feeding mechanism 8 and the punching mechanism 2 through the control signal receiving device 6B.

As described above, the control signal generation unit 6D wirelessly acquires the ID information of the perforated plate T read by the IC tag reader 5, and acquires the acquired ID information of the perforated plate T and the information stored in the storage device 6C. A function of generating a control signal for controlling the traveling device 3 and wirelessly transmitting the control signal so that the punching mechanism 2 is positioned at the punching position specified on the basis can be provided. On the other hand, the control signal receiving device 6B can be provided with a function of wirelessly receiving the control signal and giving the received control signal to the traveling device 3. Then, while the control signal receiving device 6B is mounted on the traveling device 3, the storage device 6C and the control signal generating unit 6D can be installed outside the traveling device 3.

As a result, the weight of the traveling device 3 can be further reduced. That is, it is possible to avoid installing the storage device for storing the punching position and the signal processing device for generating the control signal in the traveling device 3.

Further, by fixing the perforated plate T to which the IC tag 30 is attached to the perforated object O while providing the position sensor 4 and the IC tag reader 5 on the traveling device 3, the perforation mechanism 2, the feed mechanism 8 and the traveling device 3 are remote. Operation becomes possible. That is, it is possible to perform the automatic control including the automatic traveling of the punching machine 1 by using the long structure O2 such as the seat rail which is not originally the traveling rail as a guide.

In addition, when the length of the punching object O is several meters or more, when a single punching plate T is prepared according to the length of the punching object O, a guide provided on the punching plate T. There may be a non-negligible error in the position of the hole for use. Therefore, it is preferable to attach a plurality of perforated plates T in the traveling direction of the traveling device 3 as illustrated in FIG. 5 from the viewpoint of reducing the error in the position of the guide hole. Then, it is appropriate to reset the position serving as a reference for identifying the punching position for each punching plate T.

That is, when a plurality of perforated plates T are attached to the perforated object O in the traveling direction of the traveling device 3, information for specifying the perforated position of the hole having the first diameter is provided for each perforated plate T. It is preferable to configure the IC tag reader 5 so that the information for specifying the punching position of the hole having the second diameter is read from the second IC tag 30B while being read from the first IC tag 30A. On the other hand, the control device 6 also controls the traveling device 3 so that the reference position is reset for each drilling plate T and the first drilling mechanism 2A is positioned at the drilling position of the hole having the first diameter. It is preferable to control the traveling device 3 so that the second punching mechanism 2B is positioned at the punching position of the hole having the second diameter.

However, when a plurality of perforated plates T are attached to the perforated object O in the traveling direction of the traveling device 3, it is important to prevent a mistake in attaching the perforated plates T. Therefore, it is possible to record the information indicating the attachment order of the perforated plate T on the perforated object O in the IC tag 30. Then, the IC tag reader 5 can be configured to read the information indicating the order of attachment of the plurality of perforated plates T to the perforated object O from the IC tags 30 attached to each perforated plate T. On the other hand, the control device 6 can be provided with a function of outputting error information when the information indicating the attachment order of the perforated plates T is not read from the perforated plates T in the correct order by the IC tag reader 5. As a result, it is possible to reliably prevent mistakes in perforation due to an incorrect mounting order of the perforated plates T.

(Operation and action)
Next, a method of manufacturing a product to be punched using the punching machine 1 will be described.

When manufacturing a product to be perforated using the perforator 1, as shown in FIG. 5, the perforated plate T having the IC tag 30 attached thereto is attached to the elongated structure O2 of the object O to be perforated. In the IC tag 30, the ID information of the punching plate T and the selection information of the punching mechanism 2 are stored in advance. The size of the hole may be stored instead of the selection information of the punching mechanism 2.

On the other hand, a drill matched to the size of the hole to be drilled is attached to each drilling mechanism 2. The drill can be attached with each of the drilling mechanisms 2 removed from the traveling device 3. When a drill is attached to each punching mechanism 2, each punching mechanism 2 is attached to the feed mechanism 8 by the attachment/detachment mechanism 7. As a result, the traveling device 3 and each punching mechanism 2 are connected.

Next, the traveling device 3 equipped with the perforation mechanism 2 is installed on the elongated structure O2 of the perforation object O. When the long structure O2 has holes at a predetermined distance on the upper surface like a seat rail attached to the central wing of an aircraft, the projections 29 provided on one traveling mechanism 9 have the projections 29 of the long structure O2. Inserted in the hole. This makes it possible to prevent the traveling mechanism 9 from falling off the long structure O2 and start drilling with the traveling direction of the traveling mechanism 9 as the arrangement direction of the holes provided in the long structure O2. ..

Next, the ID information of the punching plate T recorded in the IC tag 30 of the punching plate T and the selection information of the one punching mechanism 2 are read by the IC tag reader 5 attached to the traveling device 3. The ID information of the punching plate T read by the IC tag reader 5 and the selection information of one punching mechanism 2 are wirelessly transferred to the main body 6A of the control device 6. Then, the main body portion 6A identifies the punching position corresponding to the selected one punching mechanism 2 by referring to the reference information that associates the ID information of the punching plate T with the punching position.

Subsequently, the main body portion 6A generates a control signal for instructing the traveling device 3 to move to the specified punching position and a control signal for instructing each driving of the selected one punching mechanism 2 and the corresponding feeding mechanism 8. To do. The generated control signals are wirelessly transmitted from the main body portion 6A to the control signal receiving device 6B.

Then, the control signal receiving device 6B gives the traveling device 3 an instruction to move to the punching position as a control signal. Therefore, the traveling device 3 travels in the longitudinal direction of the long structural object O2 using the long structural object O2 of the drilling object O as a guide. When the boring position is reached, the traveling device 3 stops. As a result, the punching mechanism 2 connected to the traveling device 3 can be positioned in the traveling direction. At this time, if at least two protrusions 29 of the traveling mechanism 9 are simultaneously inserted into the holes of the elongated structure O2, the tool axis direction of the drilling mechanism 2 is set to the hole of the elongated structure O2. It can be oriented perpendicular to the array direction.

When the positioning of the selected punching mechanism 2 is completed, a drive signal is given from the control signal receiving device 6B to the punching mechanism 2 and the feeding mechanism 8. Therefore, the driving operation of the feed mechanism 8 imparts the feed operation to the punching mechanism 2. Then, by driving the perforation mechanism 2, it is possible to perforate the elongated structure O2 at the perforation position. When the drilling at the drilling position is completed, the drill attached to the drilling mechanism 2 returns to the initial position, and the driving of the feed mechanism 8 also returns the drilling mechanism 2 to the initial position.

Then, in a similar flow, positioning of the punching mechanism 2 by traveling of the traveling device 3 and punching by driving of the punching mechanism 2 and the feed mechanism 8 are sequentially executed for each punching position. As a result, it is possible to perform punching at each punching position by the punching mechanism 2 selected first.

When the traveling device 3 travels near the end of the elongated structure O2, the position sensor 4 detects the end of the perforated plate T. When the position sensor 4 detects the end of the perforated plate T, the detection information of the end of the perforated plate T is wirelessly transferred to the main body 6A of the control device 6. Then, the main body portion 6A generates a control signal for reversing the traveling direction of the traveling device 3.

On the other hand, the IC tag reader 5 reads the ID information of the punching plate T and the selection information of the other punching mechanism 2 recorded on the IC tag 30 provided near the end of the punching plate T. The ID information of the punching plate T and the selection information of the other punching mechanism 2 read by the IC tag reader 5 are wirelessly transferred to the main body 6A of the control device 6. Then, the main body portion 6A identifies the punching position corresponding to the other punching mechanism 2 by referring to the reference information that associates the ID information of the punching plate T with the punching position.

Then, the main body portion 6A generates a control signal for instructing the traveling device 3 to move to the specified punching position and a control signal for instructing each drive of the selected other punching mechanism 2 and the corresponding feeding mechanism 8. .. The generated control signals are wirelessly transmitted from the main body portion 6A to the control signal receiving device 6B.

Then, the punching by the other punching mechanism 2 is performed for each punching position in the same flow as the punching by the punching mechanism 2 selected first. That is, the positioning of the perforation mechanism 2 by the traveling of the traveling device 3 and the perforation by the driving of the perforation mechanism 2 and the feed mechanism 8 are sequentially executed for each perforation position. Then, when the traveling device 3 travels near the end of the long structure O2, the position sensor 4 detects the end of the perforated plate T. When the position sensor 4 detects the end of the perforated plate T, the detection information of the end of the perforated plate T is wirelessly transferred to the main body 6A of the control device 6.

Then, the main body portion 6A generates a control signal for stopping the traveling of the traveling device 3. The generated control signal is wirelessly output to the traveling device 3 via the control signal receiving device 6B. As a result, the traveling device 3 is stopped and the perforation of the long structure O2 can be completed.

If the plurality of long structures O2 are objects to be perforated by the perforator 1, the perforated plate T is attached and the traveling device 3 equipped with the perforation mechanism 2 is targeted for the next long structure O2 to be perforated. The perforation can be performed similarly by performing the installation. Then, when the perforation of all the elongated structures O2 to be perforated by the perforator 1 is completed, the perforated product can be obtained. That is, the product to be perforated can be manufactured.

That is, the above-described punching machine 1 and the method for manufacturing a punched object have a punching plate attached to the punching object O when punching a complicated punching object O like a central wing of an aircraft having a seat rail. The IC tag 30 is attached to T, and the traveling device 3 is automatically driven based on the information read from the IC tag 30 by the IC tag reader 5. Furthermore, the punching machine 1 and the method for manufacturing a punched product are configured to simply and efficiently move two reciprocating piercing mechanisms 2 for piercing two kinds of diameters by the traveling device 3 so that two kinds of diameters can be easily produced. Perforations can be made.

(effect)
Therefore, according to the punching machine 1 and the method for manufacturing a punched product, the IC tag reader 5 can be used even when the punching object O has a complicated structure or when the punching object O has a variation in structure. The IC tag 30 can be attached at an appropriate position where information can be read. In other words, even if the object to be punched O has a complicated structure, or even if there is a variation in the structure of the object to be punched O, it is possible to perform automatic punching with automatic positioning using the IC tag 30. Becomes Therefore, the punching machine 1 can be provided with versatility.

For example, even if the punching object O does not have a hole such as a pilot hole for determining the reference position, as long as the punching plate T having the IC tag 30 attached thereto is attached to the punching object O, Since the reference position and the punching position can be specified based on the recorded information, automatic punching including automatic positioning by the punching machine 1 becomes possible. As a more specific example, when drilling the central wing of an aircraft having seat rails, it was not possible to automatically drill a portion without a pilot hole in the past. It will be possible.

Further, by providing the position sensor 4 in addition to the perforated plate T to which the IC tag 30 is attached and the IC tag reader 5, not only the perforation position and the perforation mechanism 2 used for perforation but also the position of the end of the perforated plate T is specified. can do. Therefore, even for a structure having a complicated structure, the boring mechanism 2 can be positioned by the traveling of the traveling mechanism 9 without depending on the structure of the structure.

Further, the IC tag 30 records necessary minimum information such as ID information of the perforated plate T, and controls the perforation mechanism 2 and the traveling device 3 according to the information read from the IC tag 30 by the IC tag reader 5. By carrying out remotely according to the drilling data program, the number of control circuits to be mounted on the traveling device 3 can be reduced. That is, by adopting a configuration in which a control signal is generated in the main body portion 6A of the control device 6 not mounted on the traveling device 3 and the generated control signal is wirelessly transferred to the perforation mechanism 2 and the traveling device 3, The weight of the device 3 can be reduced.

Further, it is possible to perform the punching without performing the spatial positioning using the structural information of the punching object O. For example, automatic drilling can be performed without performing control by a complicated NC program such as an NC (numerical control) machine tool. Therefore, the control algorithm can be extremely simplified.

It is also conceivable that the position of the hole is detected by the sensor each time the hole is drilled and the position of the next hole is specified, but in that case, the number of position detections and the amount of control signal communication become enormous. There is a problem. On the other hand, by referring to the information read from the IC tag 30 attached to the perforated plate T, the perforation data program that records the reference position and the pitches of a plurality of perforation positions and the like is called to determine the position of the hole. It is possible to eliminate the need for detection and dramatically reduce the amount of information communication. As a result, it is possible to reduce the drilling time.

Further, since the punching plate T is attached to the punching object O for punching, even if the punching machine 1 has a trouble and the punching is interrupted, the IC tag 30 quickly attached to the punching plate T is used. The required information can be read and drilling can be restarted.

Further, if a plurality of perforated plates T are attached to the perforated object O, it is possible to reset the reference position for each perforated plate T and perform automatic positioning. Therefore, even if the object O to be punched is large, highly accurate automatic positioning is possible. Further, by recording the attaching order of the perforated plate T in the IC tag 30, even if an operator makes an mistake in attaching the perforated plate T, it is possible to prevent the perforated mistake.

On the other hand, as described above, by attaching the IC tags 30 for positioning the perforations by the two types of perforation mechanisms 2 to both ends of the perforation plate T, the two types of perforation mechanisms 2 can be reciprocally moved for automatic perforation. .. That is, by changing the drill used for drilling and the drilling mechanism 2 between the forward path and the return path of the traveling device 3, holes having two kinds of diameters can be automatically drilled with extremely simple control.

Further, according to the punching machine 1 and the method for manufacturing the product to be punched, a dedicated rail for moving the punching machine 1 can be eliminated. Therefore, the structure of the punching machine 1 can be simplified. In particular, the traveling mechanism 9 straddling the long structure O2 can prevent the punching machine 1 from falling off the long structure O2.

Further, when the elongated structure O2 has holes arranged therein, the projection 29 of the traveling mechanism 9 is inserted into the hole of the elongated structure O2, so that the traveling mechanism 9 can stably travel. In particular, if two or more protrusions 29 are simultaneously inserted into the holes of the elongated structure O2, the tool axis can be oriented perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the holes of the elongated structure O2. Further, by providing only one traveling mechanism 9 with the projection 29 for inserting into the hole of the long structure O2, the plurality of traveling mechanisms 9 are arranged on the plurality of long structures O2 in which the arrangement directions of the holes are not parallel. Even when traveling, the tool axis direction can be oriented in an appropriate direction without being affected by the long structure O2 that is not the object of perforation.

As described above, according to the punching machine 1 and the method for manufacturing a punched product, a long structure O2 such as a seat rail having an irregular structure that is not originally a traveling rail is used due to structural and control characteristics. Even if there is, it can be used as a guide for traveling.

Further, the punching machine 1 has a structure in which the punching mechanism 2 can be easily attached to and detached from the traveling device 3. Therefore, when carrying the punching machine 1, the punching mechanism 2 can be detached and carried. That is, it is possible to facilitate the transportation of the punching machine 1 by reducing the weight of the punching machine 1 during transportation.

Also, when the drill is attached/detached and/or replaced, the drilling mechanism 2 can be removed from the traveling device 3. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the labor required for the setup work including attachment/detachment and replacement of the drill. In particular, if the drilling mechanism 2 is configured by a general-purpose drill driving device, the drilling mechanism 2 can be used for drilling in a state of being removed from the traveling device 3.

Although the specific embodiments have been described above, the described embodiments are merely examples and do not limit the scope of the invention. The novel method and apparatus described herein can be implemented in various other ways. In addition, various omissions, substitutions, and changes can be made in the method and apparatus described herein without departing from the spirit of the invention. The appended claims and their equivalents are intended to cover all such variations and modifications as fall within the scope and spirit of the invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the case where each of the plurality of traveling mechanisms 9 travels on the upper surface of the elongated structure O2 has been described as an example, but one of the traveling mechanisms may travel on the plate-shaped component O1. You can In that case, the traveling mechanism that travels on the plate-shaped component O1 can have a simple structure such as wheels.

However, when the plate-shaped component O1 is a curved surface, the height of the punching mechanism 2 may change to a non-negligible level by traveling on the plate-shaped component O1. Therefore, the punching mechanism 2 may be provided with a moving mechanism in the height direction, that is, in the direction perpendicular to the traveling direction of the traveling device 3 and the tool feeding direction. That is, a moving mechanism that moves the punching mechanism 2 in the two-dimensional direction may be mounted on the traveling device 3.

However, as in the above-described embodiment, if the moving mechanism of the punching mechanism 2 mounted on the traveling device 3 is only the feeding mechanism 8 that performs one-dimensional movement, compared to the case where two-dimensional movement is performed, The number of drive shafts and motors required can be reduced. Therefore, the weight of the punching machine 1 can be reduced. Therefore, when the plate-shaped component O1 forming the object to be punched O is a curved surface, the plurality of traveling mechanisms 9 are caused to travel on the upper surface of the elongated structure O2, and the perforation mounted on the traveling device 3 is performed. The use of only the feed mechanism 8 for one-dimensional movement as the moving mechanism of the mechanism 2 leads to the weight reduction of the punching machine 1. Even in that case, the position adjusting mechanism such as the height of the punching mechanism 2 which is not driven by the motor can be mounted on the traveling device 3 as needed.

On the other hand, as described above, a dedicated rail for traveling the traveling device 3 may be laid.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the IC tag 30 is attached to the perforation plate T has been described as an example. However, at a position where information can be read by the IC tag reader 5, the IC tag 30 is set as the perforation target object. It can be attached to any position of O. The position sensor 4 may also detect the position of the punching object O instead of the position of the punching plate T.
